  • History In Our Own Backyard

    Groveway Community Group is an organization in the heart of Roswell that has been here for over 80 years, serving unmet – but important – needs. Groveway Community is an historically Black community in Roswell that dates back to the 1800’s.

    Gail Bohanan speaks from our pulpit about the history of the community, some from personal experience, and of the organization. This episode  provides a unique opportunity for us to learn our history from a different perspective.

  • My Father, Which Art In Earth

    Our summer series of lay-led/guest speakers rolls along with GPB's own Orlando Montoya in the pulpit. He enlightens us about the life of Conrad Aiken (1898-1973), one of Georgia’s greatest writers, a Unitarian, and highly influenced by his father and grandfather.

  • Hembree Park Service

    We gathered in nature with Rev. Dave Dunn, Mandi Winders, Alex Pietsch and the Chalice Choir to share our music, poetry, puffins, and plans to reconnect with Planet Earth. A NOTE ABOUT THE AUDIO: this is what might be thought of as a "sound verite" episode. It is what a condenser mic on a phone picked up, and the resulting edited version is something of a "salvage mission," where the voices compete with the surrounding participants. Including birds, dogs, people, etc.


    Alas, due to copyright considerations we cannot include the epic struggle to overcome a keyboard's dead battery, although a wee musical snippet survives near the end of the episode.

  • UUMAN Rites of Passage

    We honor our Senior Youth as they bridge to the big, scary world beyond. We also hear faith statements, welcome a new life into our congregation via a naming ceremony, recognize the contributions of a decades-long guiding force in the Our Whole Lives program, and way more than one could easily cram into an episode blurb.

  • Slowly But Surely

    Poet Mario Benedetti writes, “The future’s coming slowly but surely… slowly but swiftly, like a dim still unnamed star.”  In this service, we examine what this could mean for all of us, today. You'll hear UUMAN members share their hopes for the future which, we are told, bends toward justice.


    All music performed by, and "Welcomed Sadness" composed by, John Pruitt.

  • Mother's Day Service

    We hear from members of the congregation about being mothers, having mothers, and not being mothers, through personal memoirs, poetry, and ad-libbing. (A note about the audio: we are continuing to have some throughput issues resulting in a reduction in quality. While noise filters have been applied to make it more listenable, we expect to have this fixed by next week, and apologize for any harshness in the listening experience.)

  • UU Celebration in Song

    Contrary to the service title, there will be very little "song" heard this week. An apparent issue with our Livestream bandwidth resulted in sub-par audio, and thus we are unable to bring you the sort of musical treat we experienced live in the Sanctuary.

    However, the newly-reassembled Chalice Choir, for the first time in two years, will light the chalice in song. And then:

    Alex explains how everyone has a place in the choir

    Dave explains why the first Sunday in May is a UU holiday

    And Michelle explains that our 50/50 recipient this month is the Khasi Hills UU Church in India:
